Abstract
A comparison of experimental and calculated responses of a CR-39 detector to neutron spectra from an Am-Be source is presented. Code named Neutron_CR-39.F90 has been used to calculate the neutron dose equivalent as well as the track density. Conversion coefficient (sensitivity), between track density in track/cm2 and neutron dose equivalent in mSv, was calculated and good agreement with experimental data was found. Sensitivity increases linearly with removed layer in the range between 6 μm and 24 μm.
